Ranger Assessment and Selection 1, known as RASP 1, is the gateway for entry into the 75th Ranger Regiment.
Roald Dahl (/ËroÊ.ÉËl ËdÉËl/ ; [ËÉ¾uËÉl dÉl] ; 13 September 1916 â 23 November 1990) was a British novelist, short story writer, poet, screenwriter, and fighter pilot.
Before James and the Giant Peach, Dahl, who was from England, had only written stories for adults, but in 1959, he began writing for children. He proved to be a talented children's author. James and the Giant Peach became very popular and is still read by many children today. Dahl published the book in 1961 in the United States, with the same publisher he had worked with on some of his short stories for adults, Alfred A. Knopf.
